To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


And still uncrowned sits earth's New Avatar.
O bitter thought that in the heaven high The sun of truth for which true martyrs bled, Once more must rise o'er land vv^here heroes die.
While hopes of peace howe'er remote have fled; Great God! canst look with unrelenting eye.
While man reverts to savage traits long dead?
21 "Belgium may be invaded. The Belgian people will never be con- quered nor crushed. The Belgian peo- ple cannot die. . . . Their soil, watered by the blood of millions of warrior
...s, is the most fertile in Europe in the harvests of the soul." — Romain Rolland.
22 TO BELGIUM "omnium fortissimi sunt belgae'* Not strength in arms doth make thy nation great Thy greatness is in wealth of soul untold; Not all thy kings, from stalwart Leopold And William, silent, unintimidate.
In pure descent to Albert called the Great; But fearless, with a courage dauntless, bold.
With spirit imperturbable of old.
Thy people constitute the perfect State.
Renascent Belgium, from the black remains Of fallen cities, Ghent, Liege, Namur, A newer sun shall blot away thy stains; Thy country plundered, burned and pillaged sore.
